From the agent: "This superb apartment, with an impressive private roof terrace, is arranged over two floors at the top of a former Victorian warehouse on Tabernacle Street and reaches over 1,100 square feet internally. The locally listed building has a London stock brick facade, and was extensively renovated in the early 2000s, when four apartments were created, and a striking glass extension was added to the top floor. Furniture designer and architectural artist Juliano Cordano then implemented an impressive and holistic redesign of the interiors, using a bold palette of meshed and rusted steel, Iroko and engineered oak, that contrasts with a careful use of primary colors throughout."
Perched on the top two floors of a Victorian warehouse in Shoreditch, London, the apartment is currently home to architect and designer Juliano Cordano and executive coach Jose-Luiz Moura, a Brazilian couple who moved to London in 2009. In his renovation, Cordano infused the apartment with touches of Memphis and Brazilian brutalism.

"In the open-plan living and dining space, black walls rise from engineered-oak flooring, stained a similar deep hue," writes the Modern House.

A glazed, sloping ceiling allows light to wash over the dining area. "We moved in before we started the work, so we got to experience the space," says Cordano. "It’s how we got our ideas, as we started to understand things like how the sunlight hits the flat and where the best views are."
